GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY
WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety
warnings, instructions,
illustrations and
specifications provided with this
power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Save all warnings and
instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the
warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power
tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well
EN
lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
6
accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools
in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power
tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match
the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with
earthed or grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to
rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never
use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool
outdoors, use an extension
cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a
damp location is unavoidable,
use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of
an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you
are doing and use common
sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool
while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
